CHRISTOPHER
LEADS A QUALITY PACK OF
THREE QUARTER (TQ) MIDGETS TO THE COFFEE CUP

The
driver besting all others last weekend in Atlantic City, NJ., is looking
forward to this weekend’s Coffee Cup indoor TQ-Midget race at the Dunkin’
Donuts Center in Providence, R.I.

Ted Christopher of Plainville, Conn., is looking to add another notch to his
TQ-Midget earnings this weekend as he’ll drive the potent No. 13 car this
Saturday night. Christopher made a statement in the TQ-Midget class as he
dominated the Gambler’s Classic at Boardwalk Hall.

“I am looking forward to getting to Providence,” Christopher said. “We have
a fast car and we know it will just as fast in Providence.”

Christopher is one of four different drivers who have previous TQ-Midget
victories at the Dunkin’ Donuts Center. Mike Iles, Mike Lichty and Mike
Stefanik are the other victors in TQ-Midget action.

“The event is a must-see for race fans in the northeast,” Christopher said.
“This breaks up the monotony of the long winter season. Fans can come and
watch some of the tightest and closest racing they’ll ever see.”

Christopher has a monetary incentive to run all-out this Saturday night. If
he can win the Coffee Cup, his earnings in a span of a week from racing
indoors could be near $10,000. He earned $5,000 last Saturday night in
Atlantic City, N.J., and another $3,000 awaits the winner of the Coffee Cup.

“I know that I am getting in a good ride,” Pitkat said. “Lou has a great
reputation for putting great cars on the race track and I am anxious for
this opportunity.”

In addition, Stewart Friesen, a 25-time winner outdoors last season, found a
ride with Mike Iles after a dismal outing in Atlantic City, N.J. The
Niagara-on-the-Lakes, Ontario, native is always a top contender indoors.

The one-day event will be action packed with grandstands opening at 6 p.m.
Time trials for the TQ-Midgets and Champ Karts will follow at 6:05. Race
action, which includes 10 qualifying events, begins at 7, followed by
feature events for both divisions.
